Autostick

The autostick feature will be deactivated if one of the following conditions occur:
- DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE 28-PRNDL Error-usually accompanied by all PRNDL lights turning on in Park and Neutral. This will result in a trouble code 28 if three such errors are detected after any one key-on.
- DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE 70-Autostick Switch Error
- DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE 71-High Powertrain Temperature-(Transmission oil temperature >275°F) or (Engine coolant temperature >255°F).

Autostick will be reactivated when the condition that caused deactivation no longer exists (The Diagnostic Trouble Codes may remain in memory up to 75 starts after the fault was initially set). The following conditions must be met to reactivate Autostick after a high temperature fault:
- Acceptable Powertrain Temperature= (Transmission Oil Temperature 255°F) and (Engine Coolant Temperature 240°F).
